@vladsavov That question is there regardless. It doesn't disappear if YC funds you.

@paulg thanks for the tip #nervous

@paulg basically it all runs down to a simple trick, you have to be relaxed when you talk with people :-)

@paulg this is great advice for any pitch, not just YC.

@paulg @sama the line between being honest with yourself about the success and deceiving yourself with mindless biases is quite thin though.

“@paulg: YC interview advice: Have calmness that comes from knowing you'll succeed regardless.” #ISMs baby! we'll figure it out! @cavsdan
